Child Support

Ontario’s child support laws are subject to a lot of misinformation out there. Unfortunately, without consulting a professional, you might be misled in regards to exactly what you should expect.

Our family law clients in Burlington, Oakville, Milton and Mississauga trust us because we’re experts in child support. We specialize in family law and can show you exactly what you’re legally entitled to.

We have a proven history of helping parents set out an amicable child support agreements during a divorce or separation. We can also help clients who feel their former spouse is not living up to their end of an existing agreement.

Child support can often be an emotionally charged topic, as both parents can have wildly differing views of what’s fair and acceptable. Our family law firm can help you reach a settlement that ensures that your children are financially looked after.

There is a set formula to figure out how much the payor is required to provide. However, exceptions can be made to account for “special” costs such as:

· Childcare expenses

· Tuition for private school

· Fees and equipment for hockey

· Medical or dental expenses

Our clients come to us with child support questions, such as:

· What if my former spouse is earning more money now than when the child support order was made?

· Does child support match payments to inflation and the increasing cost of living?
